The Bassic Sax Blog

Now, all this talk in the last week about musicians and airline travel here on my blog, the 2 articles that Bret Pimentel wrote on his Woodwind Blog on July 8 and 11, and of course the now over-the top, famous Dave Carroll from Halifax with his horror story about how United Airlines trashed his Taylor guitar, all got me wondering: Just what happens to all those those instruments that get destroyed courtesy of the airlines? Well, I think I found the answer on Flickr.

Here are 2 different pictures, by 2 different photographers, of a sculpture in the International Terminal of San Fransisco’s airport. Now I’m just assuming that these photos are of the same sculpture, and that there are not 2 of them, in 2 different airports… Although the tags on Flickr are a bit confusing, and you know what they say about assumptions. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
